Historias, recetas y cosos para orbitar la felicidad.


Hay un mundo donde una camiseta del Che y otra de Evita y otra de Ringo Starr debaten sobre el deseo y el disfrute, y un oficial principal retirado reflexiona sobre Jorge Luis Borges, y una politóloga ofrece una clase de relajación corporal con conciencia histórica, y hay un cuarto rey mago reconocido por un club llamado ¡Biblia Perón!, y un estudio revela cómo los cantos de la hinchada de El Porvenir, en el sur del conurbano, diferencian conceptos con la precisión de un cirujano. Es un mundo probablemente feliz. Y es el mundo de este texto.


Una cajita feliz que habla, y no trae hamburguesa, y tiene una capacidad de expresión aguda y elocuencia brillante es uno de los momentos claves de esta veintena de cuentos con la potente marca registrada del autor: la risa y las ideas, de la mano. El desfile de escenarios y personajes fuera de serie es incesante: de las habilidades de un personal trainer que enseña a soportar la felicidad de los demás a un parque de diversiones de suspensión de conciencia y una brigada de aviones que fumigan con culpa. El ritmo es veloz y encantador. Como siempre. Así es Una historia de la felicidad, el nuevo libro de Pedro Saborido.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Stories, recipes, and oddities to orbit happiness.


There is a world where a Che T-shirt, an Evita T-shirt, and a Ringo Starr T-shirt debate desire and enjoyment; where a retired chief officer reflects on Jorge Luis Borges; where a political scientist offers a relaxation class with historical awareness; where a fourth wise man is recognized by a club called "Biblia Perón"; and where a study reveals how the chants of El Porvenir's fans in southern Buenos Aires distinguish concepts with surgical precision. It is a probably happy world. And it is the world of this book.


A talking Happy Meal box--without a hamburger--sharp in expression and brilliantly eloquent, is one of the key moments in this collection of twenty stories marked by the author's trademark style: laughter and ideas, hand in hand. The parade of extraordinary settings and characters is relentless: from the skills of a personal trainer who teaches how to endure other people's happiness, to an amusement park of suspended consciousness, and a squadron of planes spraying guilt. The pace is fast and delightful. As always. This is Una historia de la felicidad, the new book by Pedro Saborido.

String breaks about halfway
Just as pictured. PROBLEM…..LINE BREAKS ABOUT THE MIDDLE OF THE SPOOL…. Wound so tightly that once you have used the first half it is impossible to use the rest…. So guess what…I have to buy more!

FAST. Powerful. Easy to use.
Size: 8" Edger New
WOW! I bought a new house a couple of months ago, and the landscaping company overlapped the edge of the driveway with the sod. I've bee trying to trim it back with my string trimmer, but the results were less than desirable. I got my new edger today, and I am astonished at the results! ruler straight edging, 2 1/2" deep and 1/4" wide. PERFECT! . . . and the whole front yard took less than 10 minutes! The edger is very powerful - it easily cut through the sod, deep into the dirt underneath leaving a nice clean edge. My neighbor has a lawncare company, and he was watching me. He came over and said he was going to get one for his jobs, as it is much faster and easier to use.

GREAT 80v edger (but Kobalt users beware)
Size: 8" Edger Gen1, Size: 8" Edger Gen1
This Greenworks 80v edger is fantastic. I was surprised at how sturdy and rigid the shaft is - much more so than the very much more expensive Stihl Brushcutter I used for years. I like the adjustability of the blade depth and the power is impressive. You will get more run time with higher amp batteries - I have both 2.0 and 2.5 amp batteries, but if you have multiple batteries and chargers (from acquiring multiple tools) you will never be waiting for a battery to charge. If you have only purchased Greenworks tools, then you are golden. BUT HERE IS THE RUB IF YOU, LIKE ME, THOUGHT THEY WERE STRAIGHT-ACROSS COMPATIBLE WITH THE SAME LINE OF TOOLS THEY MANUFACTURED FOR LOWE'S UNDER THE KOBALT MONIKER AND BLUE COLOR, AS DIFFERENTIATED FROM THEIR STANDARD BRIGHT GREEN. One of the reasons I went ahead and committed to buying the Kobalt line of 80v yard tools was because Greenworks made them and I figured that it would be a long-lasting and stable design platform, being the same 80v system across two different brands. Then Lowe's dropped the 80v line. I was able to get a few more of their tools for great clearance prices and looked forward to switching over to the complete line of Greenworks 80v tools. was very happy to be able to order their edger because it's the exact same power system - just that all of my gear is Kobalt blue. AND HERE IS THE DEAL WITH THAT: They are different. The Kobalt 80v battery will not fit/slide into the Greenworks 80v battery compartment/housing (*as manufactured). - I guess I shouldn't have been surprised - and it could have been Lowe's that required that the stuff made for them specifically would be incompatible. But since it's the same power system, I wondered what the difference was and if I could work-around their obstructionist corporate bs. What I discovered was that the battery compartment on the tools have two long molded channel-guides (male) that match the two long molded (female) channels in the batteries. The vertical placement of the bottom 'rail' in the tool/compartment is positioned in a slightly different spot between the Kobalt and Greenworks 'brands'. But this actually works, because I just used a hand chisel and removed the 'bottom' rail from the Greenworks tool/edger. WA-LA - EUREKA!!! It worked great! It's a great fit, the top rail is more than enough to hold the battery stably in position and the 'lock' mechanism functions perfectly! I am looking forward to buying more tools in the Greenworks 80 volt line without having to replace all of the Kobalt tools I already paid for AND ESPECIALLY the rediculously expensive batteries...

Great product that makes edging very fast
Size: 8" Edger New
Edging was quite a job because I had to do it with a hand tool. I have quite a few Greenwork tools, so I decided to purchase the edger. It works great and I am in general happy with it. The three downsides for me are that tool is quite heavy when it also has the battery in it, that the metal blade decreases in size rapidly because of the friction when edging near concrete, and that the wheel is in such a position that I have to bend substantially while the blade does not edge deep enough so that I have to lean the tool on the metal strip at the bottom of the tool.
